The Sicilian Pictures

[Lord Rahl]

I don't know if ya'll have a place for this but I thought about posting some pictures of this awesome mod. These all come from one battle which I thought looked pretty cool so...I captured some frames and now I'm posting them!

I'll give a picture that I edited some to introduce the rest.

Hey, the first page is beautiful

Glad you enjoy the game.

Lord Rahl, hat off for you: the picture you had edited to introduce the rest is, in my book so far, a winner of the Screenshot Contest announced by Lorre in this forum!

That's doubtfree true.
Is there any competition published
The loading screen job is now given to somebody certain.


@Demo , other thing what comes now to my mind as i see the banners enabled: you said once you had the banners shortened, how? I never looked at that, it would be nice if you can give the path, maybe i play though sometime with banners on.

@Lord R, what is your system spec, the picture quality is awesome. I bought last December a C2D machine with all picked up components, but sometimes i think i have to renew everything again ...

OK, open up the file called "descr_banners_new" in the Medieval II Total War/SicilianVespers/data folder. Via the info field above the page, allow contents that have been blocked there. Then right-click on the page and select "Show source" on the list that comes up. Now you're directed to a simple text file where you can edit the looks of the banners. To change their size, change the value stated after the words "General Scale" on the third row from the top of the page. I play with the value 0.4 here (changed from 1.0), which gives sizes that I find more to my realistic taste. But try any value lower than 1.0 and see for yourself.

...thanks a lot, Demo (i'll discuss this also for the mod as content).

[SicilianVespers]

Very nice indeed! great job

I actually minimized the images I got. My resolution is at 1440x900 and I minimized the images to be 1280 in width just so the images wouldn't be too big. I've got an Intel Core 2 @ 2.00GHz. 1.00 GB of RAM with a AMD Mobile Radeon X1900.

[DaVinci]

I run it on 1280x1024 (so it might be actually the higher res), intel C2D 1,8Ghz, 2 GB Ram, Ati Pro1950, but all components best quality. Well my graph quality is pretty good pretty all on highest setting, but i believe the core 2 isn't very effective on M2?

M2TW does not make use of dual core; however, a Core 2 Duo will out perform nearly all single cores due to the fact that even one of it's two cores is faster than most single cores.

[Lord Rahl]

Nah, I don't think it is that effective unfortunately. I'm not very knowledgeable about computers but my laptop gets pretty hot with M2TW!

Here are some more pictures. With each I've modified them just a tad.
